Van Ness recorded 19 tackles (12 solo) including 1.5 sacks, in nine regular-season games with Green Bay in 2025.

Van Ness also had a strip-sack in the wild-card round at Chicago. He was hit with the injury bug for the first time in his pro career in 2025, limiting him to just nine games after he didn't miss a game in either of his first two campaigns. Perhaps more concerning though, he was less productive as a pass rusher on a per-snap basis than in his first or second year. He's done little to show he is truly competing for snaps with three-time All Pro Micah Parsons (knee) or Rashan Gary, and his role in the final year of his rookie contract in 2026 will largely depend on the timeline for Parsons' recovery from the ACL tear he suffered in Week 15 at Denver.

Cross (foot) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Cross upgraded to a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited to start the week. The starting left tackle did not hold an injury designation last week either, and his playing status for Sunday's contest was never in question. The 25-year-old is all set to protect Sam Darnold's blindside on the biggest stage.

Love (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Love was a full participant throughout the second week of Super Bowl preparation, clearing the talented safety of any injury designation ahead of Sunday's title clash. Love has been a key component of the Seahawks' secondary when healthy, and he should be integral to any success Seattle has against Drake Maye and the Patriots' versatile passing attack.

Thomas (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Thomas has been a full participant in four consecutive practice sessions dating back to last Friday. The starting strong-side linebacker is ready to play in Sunday's winner-take-all contest and build on his NFC Championship Game performance, where he logged six total tackles in the victory over the Rams.

Jones (chest) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Jones was a full participant in all three practices this week, building on last week's limited sessions and avoiding any injury designation ahead of Sunday's winner-take-all game. Jones should be a key component of the Seahawks' efforts to slow down the Patriots' talented two-headed backfield of Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

Emmanwori (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl LX matchup against the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Emmanwori was a full participant in Friday's practice after missing Thursday's session due to an ankle injury. The rookie will have the opportunity to build on his strongf NFC Championship Game performance, where he logged five tackles (four solo) and three passes defensed in the victory over the Rams.

Landry (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Landry was able to return to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday before downgrading to a non-participant Thursday. The linebacker ended the week strong by once again upgrading to a limited participant Friday, and his status for Sunday's Super Bowl matchup with the Seahawks remains in question. If Landry cannot suit up, Elijah Ponder and Anfernee Jennings will likely split snaps as the outside linebacker opposite K'Lavon Chaisson, as they did in the AFC Championship Game victory over the Broncos.

Spillane (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8.

Spillane has had six practice opportunities leading up to the big game against the Seahawks, failing to participate in all but Friday's session, where the linebacker logged limited participation. Head coach Mike Vrabel will have to decide if Spillane's ankle issue will hurt the team's ability to slow down Kenneth Walker and the Seahawks' run game. If Spillane is ultimately unable to suit up, Jack Gibbens will likely start at inside linebacker opposite Christian Elliss.

Hobbs (IR, knee) ended the 2025 season with 27 tackles (14 solo) and two passes defensed over 11 games.

The starting cornerback's season ended early due to a torn MCL he suffered in the Packers' Week 17 loss to the Ravens. Hobbs started the season late due to a knee injury and also missed four games in the middle of the 2025 campaign due to the same lingering knee issue. This was the first season of the cornerback's four-year, $48 million contract with the Packers. The biggest question about Hobbs heading into the 2026 season will be whether or not knee issues will continue to affect his week-to-week availability.

Darnold (oblique) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's Super Bowl LX matchup versus the Patriots, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Darnold initially sustained a left oblique injury the Thursday before Seattle's divisional-round matchup against the 49ers, but he was able to play through it during that victory and the NFC Championship Game win versus the Rams, completing 37 of 53 passes for 470 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions and rushing three times for nine yards. He finally logged his first full practice in three weeks Thursday and followed it up with another uncapped session Friday, thereby paving the way for him to lead the Seahawks offense in the final contest of the season.
